I thought of you with love today but that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too.
I think of you in silence...I often speak your name.
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is a keepsake with which I'll never part.
God has you in his keeping...I have you in my heart

I have not forgotten your birthday. How could anyone forget anything about you. I just felt you would be celebrating until Monday. You would have celebrated your eightieth birthday with supreme joy. We thought of having a remembrance birthday, but nothing could ever be the same without you.

9 years. Some years have moved slowly, most have moved so rapidly that I can hardly catch my breath. Some years, so much hurt that I would wish the slate clean and ask for a do over. But Chris is still gone and I pray that
he is in a happier and better place. I do not suffer the endless distress that no one would care for him when I am no longer here.
Love transcends all. I think of Chris with joy and all the happiness he has given me. You of course would know he is an ornery one, but still well loved.
"How shall we sing our love's song now
In this strange land where all are born to die?
Each tree and leaf and star show why
The universe is part of this one cry,
That every life is noted and cherished,
And nothing loved is ever lost or perished."

Happy Birthday Lofton, You would have taken all the trials and tribulations with equanimity and find lots of humour in our situations. I am just weathering the storm. Every time I think that life is back to normal something gummies up the works usually stupid self serving politicians or their even more insane followers. But we shoulder on. I have not seen Westbury since Nov 2019. There are going to be many changes and I try to be pragmatic but actually I grasp the past that is familiar.

You are forever in my thoughts. How often I think, I will have to tell you something then remember that I cant call you.
Friends and reat0ives are gone. Campbell died Dec 2019. I hope the two of you are enjoying your rum jumbie sessions. George is gone. Thank goodness Merva has her wonderful children, family and friends.
5031 is undergoing a renovation. I am sure you will be proud of it.
You now have 3 great grands

2020, pandemic in full swing, especially in the USA. Almost 200,000 dead, and no end in sight. Most of this could have been avoided but the orange satan took over the government in 2016 and we have been going to hell in a handbasket. But I have hope that good outweighs the bad and better days are ahead.
I think that since Chris' death tore my heart asunder my emotions are raw. I tell myself he would not have survived the disasters of today but that doesn't really help. I try to think that he is with you and happy because he always knew he had your love
I am not sure how this is a tribute but we always talked about current issues.
Happy Birthday, Happy anniversary.

7 years and that day in 2013 is so fresh in my mind. Now Chris is gone, to my unending grief and constant tears. We do not know the exact date but I doubt that he saw his 42nd birthday.
I thought that 2019 was the worst year of my life My heart is shattered and often I could hardly breathe. But 2020 seems to be heading for the worst global disaster, millions dead worldwide, 12000 in USA in the space of a month. I wonder how you would have reacted. I am sure you would have been able to cope with every event. You had the ability to deal successfully with almost every situation. You would have been our bastion holding back our fears with humour and action. I miss you. Hold Chris. Let him know how much I love him and miss him.

Another has passed, already. Laughton's voice on the phone or at he door still reverberates, his laugh through the latest sporting and political events is still fresh, but above all his love for his wife and family was our source of admiration. Continue to treasure the wonderful times he shared and his legacy of his contribution to this region.

To Jacquiline, Marc, Christopher, and Family: Lofton is always remembered for his genuine friendship, care, and love of family. And, I for one, remember him on the golf course for his liveliness, and spirit of the game. His use of the 'wedge' in his approach shots to the green. I still have his voice saved in my 'message list' over five years ago when he addressed me as 'Jagan' and he as 'Barak Obama' notifying me of his arrival to Roanoke to join me and my group here to play golf.
Jacqui, my wife and I do wish you the best of health and happy to know that your children and grands do care for your well-being and that they have cherished their dad's good qualities and lessons of life. We are all aging now, and can only try to continue to be good parents, grand-parents, etc. Do keep well everyone, and continue in being cheerful and share happiness, peace and love. God Bless.

Time is forever
When I left that morning two years ago, I told you "Don't go anywhere, I will be back soon," You waited for me to say goodbye. It seems like yesterday.

But live for me and laugh for me, when you are happy so am I.

"LWT" was truly the first mentor I had, he inspired me to great heights, I remember as if it was yesterday, in 1988 when he employed me as his "Sales Representative" for ESSO Guyana. I had just graduated, and the role encompassed huge responsibilities to the commercial sector as well as the retail. He told me that he was confident that I would fulfill the role, and for the three years under his guidance and mentorship, I grew into a totally different indivdual following his lead. This served me for the rest of my career as I worked in different countries, thank you! I am what I am today because of your early influence- Desmond

Happy birthday to my dad with his favorite flowers. Not a day goes by that he is not thought of. September 3, was for 70 years, a brighter day because of the way he celebrated his life. We should all continue to do the same and celebrate each day of life we are afforded. I hope for comfort for my mom, my brother, my dad's brothers, sisters, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family and last but absolutely not least, his friends whom he cared so deeply about, and colleagues he cherished. As the website so aptly states, he will be forever missed.
